Developing Flash? Sick of the browser caching your newly published swf file? Turn off that cache.

Uncheck "Store common Flash components to reduce download times" in your Adobe Flash Player Settings Manager. I was getting sick of having to rename my flash swf file / try to reload my browser cache.

Strangely, the best way to get to the Flash Player Settings Manager is actually through the official Adobe website's help page, by clicking here.
